    • Quotes
      [about theatre acting during communist period] "It was difficult in the theatre during the previous regime. For minimum wage - unless you were lucky and got another job in television or film, it was misery. It was slavery to have to play what was prescribed, and there were those blandishments of the regime... And I blamed the audience for applauding us. I said to people, "Why did you clap if you didn't like it?" And they said: "It was stupid, but we felt sorry for you!"
